Jadite Glass Collectors, Community, and Trusted Source

Jadite Junkies is a community of jadite glass collectors and enthusiasts dedicated to preserving, sharing, and sourcing both vintage and modern jadite glass. What began more than a decade ago as a small Facebook group has grown into one of the largest online jadite collecting communities, connecting thousands of collectors through shared knowledge, careful sourcing, and a genuine appreciation for jadite’s unmistakable green glow, whether it comes from a mid-century classic or a contemporary production piece. Jadite Junkies expanded into a shop to solve that problem by offering carefully curated vintage and modern jadite glass for sale online from a source collectors could trust.

From the beginning, Jadite Junkies has been about more than collecting glass. It has always been about people.

We believe jadite collecting should feel welcoming, generous, and enjoyable. Kindness matters here. So does accountability. Whether someone is discovering jadite for the first time or searching for a long-coveted piece, we value honest questions, shared learning, and treating one another with respect.

As the community grew, a recurring challenge became clear. Many collectors loved jadite glass but struggled to find authentic vintage pieces locally or felt uncertain about buying online. Jadite Junkies expanded into a shop to meet that need by offering carefully curated vintage jadite glass from a source collectors could trust. As our reach continued to grow, we also began sourcing and offering high-quality modern jadite glass, including select pieces produced exclusively for Jadite Junkies, chosen with the same standards we apply to vintage glass.

Jadite Junkies is run by Shawn & Weskey Raup-Konsavage, longtime jadite collectors and administrators of the Jadite Junkies community. Over the years, we have traveled across the country visiting antique stores, shows, and markets, building relationships with dealers and fellow collectors. It is not uncommon for people to recognize us as “the Jadite Junkie guys,” and we take that recognition seriously. It reflects the trust we have built and the responsibility we carry as stewards of this collecting space.

Transparency and accountability guide how we operate. Every piece of jadite glass we offer is described honestly, with condition clearly disclosed. Vintage glass has lived a life before it reaches you, and we believe being upfront about that history builds trust and confidence for collectors.

While jadite glass remains at the heart of what we do, everything offered through Jadite Junkies is selected with the same care and intention. If an item does not belong alongside jadite visually, historically, or philosophically, it does not belong here. This is not a general antique store. It is a curated space shaped by years of collecting, listening, and learning.

Above all, Jadite Junkies remains a community first. The shop exists to support that community, not replace it. Whether you are here to buy authentic jadite glass, learn more about collecting, or simply admire the beauty of vintage jadite, you are welcome.
